bro i read the rules of "the fast & the furious" section, there is no such prohibition to post blog link.
anyway the blog is just something I promised a few months ago.
if i were to post everything here it would be too much and would be gone when we move to another version.

cheers,
loving my saga.

i am actually waiting for someone to let go any nice reasonably priced car seat for my saga. lurking around in other forums also.
tunggu macam helang ni ada je nanti terus nak sambar. tapi nak kena buat railing balik kan.

as for fiore facelift, for now i'm trying to keep it a standard car. buruk takpe janji boleh cucuk.

guys how much should i be able to sell my original 4g15 carb?

figure i'd sell it rather than keeping it and let it rust.

thank you KC.

I'm in no rush to sell it anyway, so if got buyer than good, if not I can wait. Still deciding whether to sell my OEM 14" rims.

cheers for the purchase bro!

i got the same problem when i took my car in february.
people keep telling me to change the cable, so yeah i go check, it's not the cable it's the meter itself.
lucky for me there's someone selling original old saga meter, RM 80, on the saga iswara club forum.

bought it, changed the meter myself and now am very happy to see that the odometer is working.

but an old car is an old car; now that the meter is working, my fuel warning light rosak pulak (sometimes on even when i just fill RM50 worth of petrol)...

but that's what i like about old cars, always something to fix one.

cheers.

btw when i went to one workshop in TTDI, he quoted me RM180 to change the whole thing, so you might be able to nego still.

all the best bro.

anyway currently i am having one of it as my spare already, and going to sell it all in one go, hehehe.


EDIT: sorry the OEM rim size is 13" not 14", cheers.

Added on May 21, 2008, 7:09 amtrue true, i also am getting 150 km/h only so far, really don't dare to push somemore.

i think my shocks and spring dead already since the car is so old, that's why feel the car floating.

next upgrade should be my whole suspension system, hopefully can lower the car just by 1",
I really hate to go "snake" on road bumps lah

no bro it's just the carburetor that i upgraded.
also currently on 15" rims my car still safe no need to "snake" when facing road bumps.
so going to lower a bit more only for better handling.

my tire is silverstone m5 195/50
rm 135 for one

got any noticeable difference ah when you upgrade the sparkplug cable?

the fella who sold me the DCNF40 said that best to use the OEM cables.

please share bro.

so what i heard is correct lah. anyway going to look into lightened pulleys also soon.
anyone used any good brands and experience any noticeable difference?

nice link, thanks bro!

look for weber DGAV 32/36.

for normal speeding it will use the 32 jetting (save petrol) but when you floor the pedal,
the 36 kicks in, giving you the necessary power you need.

I'm currently on weber DCNF 40. really bad fuel consumption, RM 50 = 220 ++ km only.
but I drive also quite aggressive lah.

cheers.

bro, weber = universal carburetors.

so as long as your car is running on carbs, you can fit in weber carbs.

so far from what i gather the types starts from DGAV, DCNF, DCOE.

DGAV = most fuel efficient

DCNF = intermediate fuel/power ratio

DCOE = use petrol like water but power is the best lah.




I am thinking about getting the extractor from Powerzone.

Anyway paycheck's coming soon already, hooray for my car!

Cheers.

I don't really mind my fuel consumption, so I did not really counted how much I spent this month already.

I just topup RM 50 whenever the petrol is near empty. so far this month I think I've topup 5-6 times? not so sure.

anyway it's actually been really bad since I did my exhaust. before that when I use the stock saga exhaust, the FC still quite okay.


btw catacombs & dopeisgood, your idle RPM is how much? (mine is 1k RPM)
and when you turn on AC compressor? (mine is 700-800RPM)

you guys did the linkage/FICD thing? (going to do this also lah)
linkage/FICD is when you turn on aircond and it would not affect the engine performance that much.


cheers, and good morning.

i'm going out to make a validation of a police report and go claim insurance
(bike stolen at cineleisure damansara a few days ago).
thank god it was insured as comprehensive.

second hand unit is about 350-550, air filter is around 250, installation & mod the mounting is around 100-200...

start saving now bro, cheers.

EDIT: if you are still studying, i'd advise against putting a weber since your fuel consumption would be really really expensive.

correct bro, i considered converting to injection too, but hard to find after parts,

you need not just the injection kit (not that hard to find), but an injection petrol tank as well (hard to find).

my engine now have the weirdest problem...

my black oil very fast used up as if it's leaking but it's not leaking,
and no white smoke from exhaust also...

damn weird...

now i check every couple of days and topup the oil. quite hassle...

teeku, did you received my pm?

btw, dopeisgood & catacombs, my car have to really wait until the car warm up (the temp meter goes one notch up), otherwise, the car is very prone to dying... you face the same thing?

anyone tried powerzone extractor and can vouch for it?
